Howard Boys (that's the guy's name, not like the Hardy Boys) went and made himself a functional steampunk camera. This is it. It looks old and takes pictures. Just like your grandparents on vacation!

Howard Boys took things old school with this camera that he created himself out of soldered brass. Howard purchased the lens and the shutter and built the rest.

Nice, Howard -- or should I call you Mr. Boys? Yeah, that's pretty creepy, I'm gonna stick with Howard. Well, Howard, not to toot my own horn develop my own film or anything, but one time I made a camera out of a Quaker Oats canister. So, who's the master photographer now? Just sayin', I wasn't arrested during that Victoria's Secret catalog shoot for no reason.

This is not really worth mentioning... I mean if the guy did it for the hell of it cool, but why the hell should we care??? Unless your into Electronics made to look like its from the late 1800's. I agre with @4, its NOT operated by steam so there for it is not "Steam Punk".

I am going to build an actual steam engine powered skull fucking machine and I will have a team of oxen drag it over to the first-tards house for the trial run. I will stand near it with a top hat and monocle. As it fires up and begins thrusting I will exclaim, FIRST!

As in the my steam powered skull fucking machine is the first to penetrate Trioxin's skull. Get it?

I thought the whole point of Steampunk was to refashion modern-day electronic devices to look as though they existed in the Victorian era. Why this "Steampunk camera" is a legitimate failure is that the Victorians, y'know, already HAD cameras. And those cameras looked way cooler that this thing.
